Mission

No *hash* in hand here!

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Wandsworth.

After conquering Kingston Hill on my journey, my wobbly legs were prepared to queue to recover. The mission was to pick up essential items on Mr Pā€™s shopping list. As I arrived at Sainsbury's I counted the 54 people in the queue that I passed on my way to the back. That might be my new shopping queue record! It was only 5 minutes or so before I took ten steps forward and within 45 minutes I was inside! Thankfully the items on the shopping list were not too hard to find with many varieties of some things and a lack of choice of others. Before long Iā€™d found all the items that Mr P had asked for except one! There were no hash browns to be had anywhere! I tried to hash out a plan for a replacement for those elusive hash browns and hoped Mr P would be alright with them. Would crispy potato croquettes suffice I wonder? šŸ¤žšŸ¼ After sorting out the shopping bags and reapplying the anti bac, I was on my way to deliver the goods! Mr P was very thankful and asked me to pass on his thanks to the whole GoogGym community! Great work everyone! šŸ‘šŸ¼
